    citrus, soft brown patches on the skin. The
    rotting fruits later fall to the ground.
  • Control     Attacked fruits should be removed

Rhynchocoris spp.
  • Hemiptera Pentatomidae
  • Attack citrus fruits
  • Damage  Both the adults and nymphs of this bug
    suck the juices from young citrus shoots and

    brown patches, and may later become rotten and
    fall to the ground.Control    malathion 50 per
    cent emulsion or fenitrothion (available as
    verthion, agrothion, or folithion-all at 50 per
    cent emulsion) at 1 1/2 fluid oz. in 4 gallons of
    water.
  • The fruits should not be picked until 10 to 14
    days after the last spraying.

  • Lepidoptera Gracilariidae
  • rambutan
  • Larvae bore into fruit/ seed
  • Buah rosak, dalam ada larvae
  • Control damaged fruits destroyed, regular attack
    spray trichlorphon, endosulfan 0.1 a.i

5
Dysmicoccus brevipes
  • Homoptera Pesudococcidae
  • Mealybug/koya
  • Nymph adult
  • Suck sap from root,fruit
    leaves

  • Stem borer
  • The stem will collapse/destroy
  • Control old banana stem
    destroyed.
  • Spray dieldrin, gamma
    BHC 0.1

Banana leaf roller
  • Erionota thrax
  • LepidopteraHisperiidae
  • Larvae attack/feed on banana leaf
  • Symptom larva cuts the leaf and rolls up banana
    leaves starting from the leaf midrib (tulang daun)

  • Control
  • Mechanical collect the leaf rolls and destroy
